 | Breast cancer chemotherapy drug? with Herceptin |
|
|
My sister is sufferinf from breast cancer; her tumors are strongly
Her2 positve. She already received chemotherapy such as taxol, 5-FU,
cyclophosphamide, andromycin and so on. I wonder if you can provide me
with names of combinations of chemotherapy drug, which can be used with
Herceptin.
---------------------
-Further information on the effects to different patiens available.
We need to know your full address and the Basic & latest situation
of your patient. -I'm not a doctor, so perhaps one of the docs who scans this group will have
better information, but as far as I know, herceptin is a monoclonal
antibody, so it is not likely to interact with any regular chemotherapy drug
in a chemical way. I'm attaching a very recent abstract about its use in
combination with cisplatin. -My sister is starting herceptin with cistplatin next week. she is very
concerned about this combo but she too has done the other chemo drugs.
